Just a thought-

Instead of using dosmemput and associated functions which use the djgpp
dos buffer, why not use an intersegment move to access it directly? If you
use the djgpp buffer, it is easier, but in the FAQ I believe it said that
you are not always guaranteed that the buffer exists. Since you can
instead use a movedata with _dos_ds, why not give this a shot?
